Unlike classical Public Economics, which typically models government as a benevolent actor aiming to correct market failures and maximize social welfare, Political Economy explicitly models the political actors, incentives, and institutional constraints that shape policy choices and outcomes. It is structured around five main parts: Part I: Preliminaries \u2013 Why Government? Collective Choice Theory; Part II: The Organization of Government \u2013 Legislative and Bureaucratic Policymaking; Institutional Resilience; Part III: Determinants of Government Policy \u2013 Electoral Accountability, Interest Groups, Political Parties; Part IV: Political Governance in Weak States; Part V: Intergovernmental Relations \u2013 International Cooperation and Federalism.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-button-list-v2\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-button-list-item-v2\"><a class=\"quick-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fdef-en\/study-programs\/bachelor-en-sciences-economiques\/programme\/\" target=\"\" role=\"link\" rel=\"noopener\" tabindex=\"0\"><span class=\"quick-link__container\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-block-inserter quick-link__img\">\n<div class=\"icon--primary icon--secondary-2 icon--xl wp-block-unilux-blocks-icon-picker\">\n    <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--subject-librarian \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--subject-librarian\"><\/use><\/svg><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<span class=\"quick-link__name wp-block-unilux-blocks-plain-text\">Bachelor in Economics study programme<\/span>\n\n<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--arrow-right \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--arrow-right\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-spacer is-spacer-size-md\"><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"political-economy-collective-decision-making-strategies-and-institutions\"\n    >\n Political Economy: Collective Decision Making, Strategies, and Institutions<\/h2>\n\n<p>Teacher: <a href=\"http:\/\/uni.lu\/fdef-en\/people\/vincent-anesi\/\">Vincent ANESI<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p>Formation: Doctoral School in Economics, Finance, and Management<\/p>\n\n<p>Syllabus: In many situations of interest in Economics, Finance, and Management, the decision maker is a group, rather than a single individual \u2013 e.g., governments (cabinets, legislatures\u2026), central bank committees, international organisations, corporate boards, trade unions, consumer cooperatives, households, etc. How do those groups aggregate the heterogeneous preferences of their members? How do their decisions depend on the rules that govern their collective choices? And how do individuals and coalitions strategically pursue their own goals when confronted with such rules? This course is a rigorous introduction to the methods and models that are used in Political Economy to answer these questions. Its objective is: (i) to provide students with a sufficient knowledge of political economic theory to read applied research papers, and (ii) to apply those methods to their own research work. Particular attention will be given to providing an intuitive understanding of the logic behind the methods and results presented, and to how they can be used in economic applications of interest.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-button-list-v2\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-button-list-item-v2\"><a class=\"quick-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/research-en\/doctoral-education\/dsefm\/economics-and-management-sciences\/\" target=\"\" role=\"link\" rel=\"noopener\" tabindex=\"0\"><span class=\"quick-link__container\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-block-inserter quick-link__img\">\n<div class=\"icon--primary icon--secondary-2 icon--xl wp-block-unilux-blocks-icon-picker\">\n    <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--subject-librarian \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--subject-librarian\"><\/use><\/svg><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<span class=\"quick-link__name wp-block-unilux-blocks-plain-text\">Doctoral School in Economics, Finance, and Management<\/span>\n\n<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--arrow-right \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--arrow-right\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-spacer is-spacer-size-md\"><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"the-history-and-politics-of-european-integration\"\n    >\nThe History and Politics of European Integration<\/h2>\n\n<p>Teacher : <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/people\/anna-lena-hogenauer\/\">Anna-Lena H\u00f6genauer<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p>Formation: Bachelors in European Cultures<\/p>\n\n<p>Syllabus : This course is an introduction to European politics targeted at students in the Bachelor in European cultures. The main disciplines of the students are philosophy, history, English, French and German studies. The course examines the history of European integration and then focuses on key topics today to help students understand better current debates. It thus critically discusses the EU\u2019s performance in the areas of the rule of law, defense policy, climate change policy, health policy, the Eurozone crisis etc. Each session focuses on what the EU has achieved, what inspired those policies, what their shortcomings and successes are and how these policies evolve(d) in the face of crises. Resilience is discussed in the context of several sessions.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-button-list-v2\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-button-list-item-v2\"><a class=\"quick-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-de\/study-programs\/bachelor-en-cultures-europeennes-english-studies\/\" target=\"_blank\" role=\"link\" rel=\"noopener\" tabindex=\"0\"><span class=\"quick-link__container\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-block-inserter quick-link__img\">\n<div class=\"icon--primary icon--secondary-2 icon--xl wp-block-unilux-blocks-icon-picker\">\n    <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--subject-librarian \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--subject-librarian\"><\/use><\/svg><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<span class=\"quick-link__name wp-block-unilux-blocks-plain-text\">Bachelor en Cultures Europ\u00e9ennes <\/span>\n\n<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--arrow-right \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--arrow-right\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-spacer is-spacer-size-md\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"the-art-and-practice-of-negotiating-eu-legislation-relating-to-resilience\"\n    >\nThe art and practice of negotiating EU legislation relating to resilience<\/h2>\n\n<p>Teacher: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fdef-en\/people\/frederic-allemand\/\">Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Allemand<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p>Formation: Master en \u00e9tudes parlementaires<\/p>\n\n<p>Syllabus&nbsp;: This course offers an immersive experience of the European legislative process, beginning with a historical, political and legal overview of European legislative procedures. Particular attention will be paid to the objectives and organisation of the ordinary legislative procedure. Subsequently, students will be invited to explore the technical, institutional and political intricacies of the legislative procedure through a negotiation simulation exercise. Based on a real-life case (EU Deforest Regulation), the simulation will replicate the various formal and informal stages of the legislative procedure. It will enable students to understand the economic, environmental and political factors surrounding a piece of legislation central to the promotion of environmental resilience.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-button-list-v2\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-button-list-item-v2\"><a class=\"quick-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/study-programs\/master-en-etudes-parlementaires\/\" target=\"\" role=\"link\" rel=\"noopener\" tabindex=\"0\"><span class=\"quick-link__container\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-block-inserter quick-link__img\">\n<div class=\"icon--primary icon--secondary-2 icon--xl wp-block-unilux-blocks-icon-picker\">\n    <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--subject-librarian \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--subject-librarian\"><\/use><\/svg><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<span class=\"quick-link__name wp-block-unilux-blocks-plain-text\">Master en \u00e9tudes parlementaires<\/span>\n\n<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--arrow-right \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--arrow-right\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"accordion__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-accordion-item\">\n    <h3 class=\"accordion__header\"\n                    id=\"blog\"\n        >\n        <button\n            type=\"button\"\n            id=\"accordion-labelledby-3d557b51-e824-4202-b31c-4fb5616db87b\"\n            class=\"accordion__button collapsed\"\n            aria-expanded=\"false\"\n            aria-controls=\"accordion-panel-3d557b51-e824-4202-b31c-4fb5616db87b\"\n            data-bs-toggle=\"collapse\"\n            data-bs-target=\"#accordion-panel-3d557b51-e824-4202-b31c-4fb5616db87b\"\n        >\n            <span class=\"accordion__title\">\n                                Blog            <\/span>\n\n            <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--arrow-down \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--arrow-down\"><\/use><\/svg>        <\/button>\n    <\/h3>\n    <div id=\"accordion-panel-3d557b51-e824-4202-b31c-4fb5616db87b\"\n        class=\"accordion__collapse collapse\"\n        aria-labelledby=\"accordion-labelledby-3d557b51-e824-4202-b31c-4fb5616db87b\"\n        data-bs-parent=\"[data-reference=&quot;c5c5ed61-b4e5-4cb6-a286-b9657319fbc9&quot;]\"\n    >\n        <div class=\"accordion__body \">\n            \n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"accordion__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-accordion-item\">\n    <h3 class=\"accordion__header\"\n                    id=\"past-events\"\n        >\n        <button\n            type=\"button\"\n            id=\"accordion-labelledby-90af1e10-225d-4fb7-835e-36faeceff961\"\n            class=\"accordion__button collapsed\"\n            aria-expanded=\"false\"\n            aria-controls=\"accordion-panel-90af1e10-225d-4fb7-835e-36faeceff961\"\n            data-bs-toggle=\"collapse\"\n            data-bs-target=\"#accordion-panel-90af1e10-225d-4fb7-835e-36faeceff961\"\n        >\n            <span class=\"accordion__title\">\n                                Past events            <\/span>\n\n            <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--arrow-down \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--arrow-down\"><\/use><\/svg>        <\/button>\n    <\/h3>\n    <div id=\"accordion-panel-90af1e10-225d-4fb7-835e-36faeceff961\"\n        class=\"accordion__collapse collapse\"\n        aria-labelledby=\"accordion-labelledby-90af1e10-225d-4fb7-835e-36faeceff961\"\n        data-bs-parent=\"[data-reference=&quot;c5c5ed61-b4e5-4cb6-a286-b9657319fbc9&quot;]\"\n    >\n        <div class=\"accordion__body \">\n            \n<p>These activities were carried out under the sponsorship of the University of Luxembourg&#8217;s Robert Schuman Initiative for European Affairs.

More specifically, the speakers discussed: the application of national law by the ECB in the banking supervision context; the state of play regarding granting cross-border liquidity waivers in the Banking Union; and the role of Joint Supervisory Teams in supervisory convergence. <strong>Chair:<\/strong>  David Howarth, Professor, Department of Social Sciences, University of Luxembourg; <strong>Participants: <\/strong>Florian Weidenholzer, Head of Division Supervisory Policies at the ECB; Dr. Maria Cecilia del Barrio Arleo, European Banking Institute; Dr. Jakub Gren, European Banking Institute; Professor Marta Bo\u017eina Bero\u0161, Associate Professor at the University of Pula, Croatia.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"17-04-2023\"\n    >\n17.04.2023<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>&#8220;<a href=\"\/\/\/content\/download\/150942\/1704921\/file\/Affiche%20Lecture%20Charlotte%20Godziewski%2017.04.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The politics of health promotion in the European Union<\/a>&#8220;, RSI-DSOC sponsored presentation by Professor Charlotte Godziewski, City, University of London. Much has been written about policy efforts to achieve \u2018Health in All Policies\u2019: an ambitious attempt to improve population health and reduce health inequalities by ensuring multiple policy areas are more attuned to their health impacts. However, most accounts focused on technical challenges, such as implementing impact assessments. In contrast, and focusing on the European Union, Professor Godziewski argued that \u2018Health in All Policies\u2019 was essentially a political project shaped by institutional power, competing ideas, and discourses.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"28-02-2023\"\n    >\n28.02.2023<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c2dh.uni.lu\/\">C2DH<\/a> together with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eui.eu\/en\/home\">European University Institute<\/a> (Florence, Italy) and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lhlt.mpg.de\/en\">Max Planck Institute for Legal History and Legal Theory<\/a> (Frankfurt am Main, Germany), organised a <a href=\"https:\/\/maison-schuman.uni.lu\/2023\/02\/28\/international-summer-school-oral-history-meets-european-studies-sources-tools-and-methods-in-the-digital-age-3-july-6-july-2023-maison-schuman-luxembourg-city\/\">Summer School<\/a> to explore methods of oral history and to test digital tools, while it pays attention to how digital sources may shape narratives in contemporary European history.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li><\/ul>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"accordion__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-accordion-item\">\n    <h3 class=\"accordion__header\"\n                    id=\"2022\"\n        >\n        <button\n            type=\"button\"\n            id=\"accordion-labelledby-dacb7f76-cecf-4279-9a69-acb499d72168\"\n            class=\"accordion__button collapsed\"\n            aria-expanded=\"false\"\n            aria-controls=\"accordion-panel-dacb7f76-cecf-4279-9a69-acb499d72168\"\n            data-bs-toggle=\"collapse\"\n            data-bs-target=\"#accordion-panel-dacb7f76-cecf-4279-9a69-acb499d72168\"\n        >\n            <span class=\"accordion__title\">\n                                2022            <\/span>\n\n            <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--arrow-down \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--arrow-down\"><\/use><\/svg>        <\/button>\n    <\/h3>\n    <div id=\"accordion-panel-dacb7f76-cecf-4279-9a69-acb499d72168\"\n        class=\"accordion__collapse collapse\"\n        aria-labelledby=\"accordion-labelledby-dacb7f76-cecf-4279-9a69-acb499d72168\"\n        data-bs-parent=\"[data-reference=&quot;620b0b46-9411-408f-8454-ed63136003ac&quot;]\"\n    >\n        <div class=\"accordion__body \">\n            \n<ul class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list list-highlighted list-highlighted--architectural\"><li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"07-12-2022\"\n    >\n07.12.2022<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>&#8220;The Caucasus Connection: Status Quo and Prospects of joining the EU&#8221;.

All too often following recent economic, migration and health crises, scholarly attention has focused on the universal development banks rather than exploring their regional and national counterparts. Where are the Public Development Banks (PDBs) in these crises? With notable exceptions we are left with an almost blank slate for contemporary engagement with European PDBs in particular. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"30-06-to-01-07-2022\"\n    >\n30.06 to 01.07.2022<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>SIPE XIV.Tagung &#8211; XIVth Congress of the SIPE &#8211; XIVe Congr\u00e8s du SIPE &#8220;Rechtsstaatlichkeit in Europa: Unabh\u00e4ngigkeit der Justiz und wirksame Rechtsmittel \/ Rule of law in Europe: judicial independence and effective remedies \/ Etat de droit en Europe: ind\u00e9pendance de la justice et recours effectifs&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"09-06-2022\"\n    >\n09.06.2022<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>Public Workshop on &#8216;L\u2019\u00e9mission de dette publique dans l\u2019Union \/ Public debt issuance in the EU&#8217;.

The European Union both offers benefits and poses challenges to small member states. On the one hand, from the perspective of shelter theory, the European Union contributes to the security of small states and provides benefits of \u2018scale\u2019, such as access to a larger market. On the other hand, the question is to what extent small states can influence decision-making in a Union that contains many states and, in particular, much more populous states. In this context, the aim of the workshop is to analyze the strategies of small states in European Union politics now that the many \u2018new\u2019 member states that joined since 2004 have had ample time to settle in.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"06-05-2021\"\n    >\n06.05.2021<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>Robert Schuman Lecture at the University of Luxembourg Webinar: &#8220;Luxembourg, the first capital of a United Europe&#8221;. In July 1952, Luxembourg City was chosen as the provisional location of the ECSC. On 10 August 1952, the High Authority moved into the building that now houses the Spuerkeess bank. Later that year, on 10 December, the ECSC Court of Justice held its formal inaugural session at the Cercle Municipal, on the Place d\u2019Armes. The judges\u2019 chambers were housed in the Villa Vauban. From 1952 to 1954, the Special Council of Ministers regularly met in the great chamber of Luxembourg City Hall. Luxembourg City therefore became one of the seats of the European Communities, alongside Strasbourg, which hosted the Common Assembly, and Brussels from 1958 onwards following the creation of the European Economic Community and Euratom. The merger of the Community executive bodies in 1965 confirmed Luxembourg\u2019s role as Europe\u2019s legal and financial headquarters. It was only in 1992 that the Edinburgh European Council enshrined Luxembourg, Brussels and Strasbourg as \u201cpermanent capitals\u201d of the European Union. <\/p>\n\n<p>The ECSC Treaty marked the start of Luxembourg\u2019s European vocation as a founding state and leading player in the European integration process, and that of Luxembourg City as the \u201cfirst capital of a united Europe\u201d. <a href=\"https:\/\/eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.uni.lu%2Fen%2Fnews%2F1st-robert-schuman-lecture-luxembourg-the-first-capital-of-a-united-europe%2F&amp;data=05%7C02%7Cdavid.howarth%40uni.lu%7Cd88f94cdc3614cc7173008dc45dbee1a%7C445a9c950f9d49539db1bc4a45dd1220%7C0%7C0%7C638462058089862796%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=Tr8JGdCd4miWtTzL%2BnprR%2B03uYPgOBL9hbe%2FPIB6GSY%3D&amp;reserved=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/en\/news\/1st-robert-schuman-lecture-luxembourg-the-first-capital-of-a-united-europe\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li><\/ul>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"accordion__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-accordion-item\">\n    <h3 class=\"accordion__header\"\n                    id=\"2020\"\n        >\n        <button\n            type=\"button\"\n            id=\"accordion-labelledby-8e69bd26-ab06-4604-8457-902c9c66e4b2\"\n            class=\"accordion__button collapsed\"\n            aria-expanded=\"false\"\n            aria-controls=\"accordion-panel-8e69bd26-ab06-4604-8457-902c9c66e4b2\"\n            data-bs-toggle=\"collapse\"\n            data-bs-target=\"#accordion-panel-8e69bd26-ab06-4604-8457-902c9c66e4b2\"\n        >\n            <span class=\"accordion__title\">\n                                2020            <\/span>\n\n            <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--arrow-down \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--arrow-down\"><\/use><\/svg>        <\/button>\n    <\/h3>\n    <div id=\"accordion-panel-8e69bd26-ab06-4604-8457-902c9c66e4b2\"\n        class=\"accordion__collapse collapse\"\n        aria-labelledby=\"accordion-labelledby-8e69bd26-ab06-4604-8457-902c9c66e4b2\"\n        data-bs-parent=\"[data-reference=&quot;620b0b46-9411-408f-8454-ed63136003ac&quot;]\"\n    >\n        <div class=\"accordion__body \">\n            \n<ul class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list list-highlighted list-highlighted--architectural\"><li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"10-12-2020\"\n    >\n10.12.2020<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>Workshop \u201cItaly and the European Investment Bank&#8221;, in partnership with the University of Padova. The Workshop \u201cItaly and the European Investment Bank&#8221; will take place on 10 December 2020.  The Workshop aims at analysing the role and policy of the EIB in Italy. It will be hosted by the Department of Political Science, Law and International Studies of the University of Padova in cooperation with the Institute of Political Science and the Robert Schuman Initiative for European Affairs of the University of Luxembourg. The Workshop will take place remotely due to the Covid-19 measures. The Workshop is the second leg of the Conference \u201cAnalysing the European Investment Bank: interdisciplinary approaches to understanding the past, present and future of the world\u2019s biggest lender\u201d, which took place at the University of Luxembourg on 10-11 July 2019. The Conference had been attended by 25 prominent scholars from top universities in 9 EU countries and the USA, with well-known track records on European Investment Bank (EIB) research. The works presented examined the EIB from different backgrounds such as economy, history, law and political science. The Workshop focuses on EIB activity in Italy, as one of the bank\u2019s founding shareholders, one of its prime beneficiary countries and a decisive contributor in the bank\u2019s evolution from an institutional and organizational perspective. The organisation of a specific event dedicated to Italy was deemed necessary as a result of the large number of proposals received on the topic following the Call for Papers for the first Conference issued in 2018. The Workshop provides the opportunity for an in depth academic discussion.  The organisers will seek to publish the papers presented in Padova as a special issue of an international journal.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"19-11-2020\"\n    >\n19.11.2020<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>&#8220;Pro Europa 1919-2019&#8221;. Lecture du Professeur Ren\u00e9 Leboute (Universit\u00e9 du Luxembourg). Puisant ses racines dans l\u2019antiquit\u00e9 gr\u00e9co-romaine, forgeant sa teneur d\u00e8s l\u2019apparition des premiers \u00c9tats-nations au Moyen-\u00c2ge, et se profilant de mani\u00e8re r\u00e9solue \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9poque contemporaine, l\u2019id\u00e9e europ\u00e9enne s\u2019est effectivement concr\u00e9tis\u00e9e au XXe si\u00e8cle. Avant qu\u2019elle ne devienne un v\u00e9ritable projet politique, l\u2019id\u00e9e europ\u00e9enne est rest\u00e9e limit\u00e9e au cercle des visionnaires, qui ambitionnaient de pr\u00e9server la paix par la construction d\u2019une Europe unie. Ces projets intellectuels sont rest\u00e9s souvent utopiques, tant que les puissances politiques ne les prenaient pas en charge. Entre les guerres successives du XX\u00e8me si\u00e8cle, il a fallu attendre les r\u00e9flexions issues des mouvements de r\u00e9sistance au totalitarisme pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, pour voir \u00e9merger un nouvel espoir: d\u00e9passer les antagonismes nationaux et cr\u00e9er les conditions d\u2019une paix durable par le biais d\u2019une organisation structur\u00e9e de l\u2019Europe, fond\u00e9e sur des int\u00e9r\u00eats communs, sur l\u2019\u00e9galit\u00e9 des \u00c9tats et le respect du droit. Ce processus a men\u00e9 \u00e0 l\u2019Union europ\u00e9enne que nous connaissons aujourd\u2019hui, dont la construction ne s\u2019est pas faite sans heurts et dont l\u2019avenir est empreint de difficult\u00e9s.

This event marked the 50th anniversary of the Werner Report, and analysed the role of Economic and Monetary Union at a time of uncertainty as to the wider European project, via an interdisciplinary approach that drew on historical and archive research and took into consideration the theoretical debates in the literature and the various methodological challenges. We began by looking at the Werner Report, which was a blueprint for Economic and Monetary Union; several of its recommendations are still on the agenda today. Through the collaboration between Robert Triffin, Jean Monnet and Pierre Werner as reflected in the archives, we highlighted the key role of various figures, networks and institutions in monetary unification and in shaping Economic and Monetary Union. We then took a closer look at how Economic and Monetary Union created the monetary, financial and fiscal stability that Europe needed to overcome periods of difficulty such as the global financial crisis and its repercussion. Finally, we explored the multifaceted future challenges facing Economic and Monetary Union.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"01-10-2020\"\n    >\n01.10.2020<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>Online Workshop &#8221; Reforming the Institutions of Eurozone Governance&#8221;. <a href=\"\/\/\/content\/download\/142769\/1622561\/file\/Reforming%20the%20Institutions%20of%20Eurozone%20Governance%20Workshop.pdf\">Programme <\/a>and special issue of the journal <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cogitatiopress.com\/politicsandgovernance\/issue\/view\/250\"><em>Politics and Governance<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"29-01-2020\"\n    >\n29.01.2020<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>Conference &#8220;The Internet and the European Market from a historical perspective&#8221; This conference, organised by the Robert Schuman Initiative for European Affairs with the support of the C\u00b2DH, examined the relationship between the Internet, EU regulation and market integration from a historical perspective.

This conference brought together scholars from different disciplines (economy, history, law and political science) with a threefold aim: to investigate whether and how the EIB contributed to the economic development and integration of the European Union; to examine the evolution of the EIB as an institution; and to explore its future prospects. Our goals were to understand which political, economic and institutional factors influenced the trajectory of the EIB and its policies, which events can be considered milestones and decisive turning points in this process, which personalities played a relevant role, and how the EIB contributed to the tasks pinpointed by the Treaty of Rome. We want to identify the distinctive operational phases that have come to characterise concrete periods of the EIB\u2019s existence and offer a periodisation of the entity`s trajectory. We also want to ascertain how internal changes and the changes in the international economic and geopolitical context influenced the EIB, and how the EIB responded and adapted to these changes and to the changing EU institutional environment. We want to offer a qualitative and quantitative analysis of the most salient trends and changes in the EIB\u2019s operations by looking at the patterns of loan allocations and the evolving origins of its funding sources. We also wish to look forward and to consider the EIB\u2019s future role in a globalized, multipolar political and economic environment.  Many of the papers from the conference were reproduced in a Routledge edited volume focused on the EIB.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"28-06-2019\"\n    >\n28.06.2019<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>Colloque &#8220;La surveillance prudentielle du secteur financier: la dimension europ\u00e9enne&#8221;, en partenariat avec l&#8217;OLDE.

The BENELUX and the Nordic Council both offer longstanding models of regional cooperation, which have, in various ways, often been cited as examples for the wider European integration project. More recently, both the Visegr\u00e1d and Baltic states have seen the (re-) emergence of forms of regional cooperation in connection with their accession to and later membership of the European Union. Yet, though often cited, these experiences of (sub-)regional cooperation within the wider European project have been the object of relatively little systematic or comparative study. The present conference addressed this gap by bringing together specialists on these regional groupings with a view to providing a fuller understanding of both their historical significance and their possible future role relative to a potentially fragmenting European political landscape. The conference comprised both a keynote event on the evening of Monday 8 April and a one-day workshop on Tuesday 9 April, with conference sessions dealing with both the historical and contemporary dimensions of such regional groupings. The panels dealt both with the specific experiences of the BENELUX and with the experiences of other comparable groupings such as (but not limited to) the Nordic Council, the Baltic states and the Visegr\u00e1d group. The papers presented dealt with such topics as: the manner in which such groups have allowed for the development of specific forms of (deeper\/different) cooperation amongst their member countries; the use of such groups as a means to coordinate policy with a view to enhancing the collective influence of their members within wider fora; the role of such (sub-)groupings as potentially both accelerators and brakes in relation to wider processes of European integration; and the place assumed by such groupings within overall national foreign policies.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"21-01-2019\"\n    >\n21.01.2019<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>Roundtable &#8220;Bilateral Investment Treaties and the Autonomy and Values of the European Union &#8211; Threats or Opportunities&#8221;, with guest speaker Anders Neergaard, Head of Unit in the Legal Service of the European Parliament According to the Treaties, the Union shall uphold and promote its values and interests and contribute to the protection of its citizens in its relations with the wider world. Against this background, the presentation looks at how the Union shall contribute to a number of objectives such as sustainable development, free and fair trade, the protection of human rights, and to the strict observance and the development of international law. It then continues with the case law of the Court, according to which an international agreement cannot affect the allocation of powers fixed by the Treaties or, consequently, the autonomy of the EU legal system, considering that the Court is currently examining the compatibility of invest-state dispute resolution with this autonomy of the Union legal order. Taking the promotion of values and the autonomy of the Union legal order as a starting point and bearing in mind the recent criticism in the public debate against investor state dispute settlement, the presentation then looks at some existing \u201ctraditional\u201d BIT&#8217;s and the awards rendered on this basis. Finally, it continues with a reflection on recent Union treaties on these matters.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li><\/ul>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"accordion__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-accordion-item\">\n    <h3 class=\"accordion__header\"\n                    id=\"2018\"\n        >\n        <button\n            type=\"button\"\n            id=\"accordion-labelledby-0b7c78f3-44fc-4424-908b-06a6a95e98ae\"\n            class=\"accordion__button collapsed\"\n            aria-expanded=\"false\"\n            aria-controls=\"accordion-panel-0b7c78f3-44fc-4424-908b-06a6a95e98ae\"\n            data-bs-toggle=\"collapse\"\n            data-bs-target=\"#accordion-panel-0b7c78f3-44fc-4424-908b-06a6a95e98ae\"\n        >\n            <span class=\"accordion__title\">\n                                2018            <\/span>\n\n            <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--arrow-down \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--arrow-down\"><\/use><\/svg>        <\/button>\n    <\/h3>\n    <div id=\"accordion-panel-0b7c78f3-44fc-4424-908b-06a6a95e98ae\"\n        class=\"accordion__collapse collapse\"\n        aria-labelledby=\"accordion-labelledby-0b7c78f3-44fc-4424-908b-06a6a95e98ae\"\n        data-bs-parent=\"[data-reference=&quot;620b0b46-9411-408f-8454-ed63136003ac&quot;]\"\n    >\n        <div class=\"accordion__body \">\n            \n<ul class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list list-highlighted list-highlighted--architectural\"><li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"13-12-2018\"\n    >\n13.12.2018<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>&#8220;Judicialization of Investor-State Dispute Resolution: Competing Models of Legal Globalization&#8221;. Lecture by Prof. Joanna Jemielniak (Univeristy of Copenhagen). Public backlash against arbitration as the dominant method of investor-state dispute resolution has in recent years resulted in a number of reform proposals. Many of them aim at either supplementing or replacing the existing mechanisms with court-like forms of adjudication. The lecture will discuss two such proposals, which have enjoyed notable political support: the EU Investment Court System and the Belt and Road dispute resolution mechanism. Prospects for establishment of a multilateral investment court will also be examined, with regard to pending proceedings of UNCITRAL Working Group III, and to the EU-China BIT negotiations. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"01-09-2018\"\n    >\n01.09.2018<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>Conference on The Role of the Advocate General.

Lecture by Dr. Joni Heliskoski (Finnish Ministry of Foreign Affairs) The lecture explored the practice relating to the ratification and provisional application of mixed agreements, concluded by the European Union and its Member States, by addressing questions such as the following: How does the ratification of mixed agreements work in practice? Does EU law or public international law require the Member States to ratify mixed agreements and, if so, on what basis? Are there differences in that regard between different types of mixed agreements? What are the legal consequences if a Member State does not ratify a mixed agreement? What are the ways of alleviating the legal problems arising from either a delay in the procedure of ratification of a mixed agreement or the eventual failure of a Member State to ratify? How does the provisional application of mixed agreements work in practice? Is it possible for the provisional application to continue if a Member State refuses to ratify the agreement? Are there alternatives to provisional application as a means of bringing certain provisions of a mixed agreement into force pending the ratification procedure? <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"24-11-2017\"\n    >\n24.11.2017<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>Conference &#8220;L&#8217;Europe competitive et la transformation de l&#8217;Etat-Providence&#8221;.

Union citizenship is undergoing continuous evolution, given the constant tension between the EU\u2019s origins as an international economic organisation and its federal aspirations. EU law adopts a \u201cconstitutional\u201d approach to citizenship, as Union citizenship is meant to be the fundamental status of nationals of the Member States. There is the risk, however, that in the context of the division of competences between the Union and the Member States the rights derived from EU citizenship, instead of being universally bestowed on all EU citizens, turn into a compensatory device to enhance the life chances of those who are perceived as \u201ccontributing to the internal market\u201d, leaving all the most vulnerable citizens in need of protection by definition outwith the scope of EU law. The Conference organized by the Amicale des r\u00e9f\u00e9rendaires of the Court of Justice of the European Union, the University of Luxembourg and the University of Groningen provided an opportunity of dialogue on the development of EU citizenship law. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"25-10-2017\"\n    >\n25.10.2017<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>Conference &#8220;To Give or to Grab: the Principle of Conferral of Powers Post-Lisbon&#8221;, with guest speaker Prof. Inge Govaere (University of Ghent, College of Europe). The conference explored the definition and application of the principle of conferral after the entry into force of the Lisbon Treaty. It was argued that, from a sequential perspective, this is the first structural principle to be addressed in any given case. The Lisbon Treaty does not remain neutral in this respect but instead clearly (re-)affirms the Member States in their role of masters of the Treaties. Instead of offering stability, clarity and certainty, the Lisbon Treaty has triggered many cases with a renewed line of questioning. The main topics addressed at the conference were: What types of conferral can one identify in the Treaties (full, crippled, split) \/How does this (potentially) impact the case-law of the Court of Justice. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"13-10-2017\"\n    >\n13.10.2017<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>Conference &#8220;Shaping the Europe of the Future&#8221;, with guest speaker Jean-Claude Juncker, President of the European Commission.

EU Law: The Constitutional Realities of Brexit&#8221;. Public lecture given by Prof. Gordon Anthony (Queen&#8217;s University Belfast). One of the outcomes that \u201cBrexit\u201d was supposed to achieve was an end to the primacy of EU law in UK courts. However, was apparent that there would be a difference between the form and substance of any such change. The UK Government\u2019s proposals for a \u201cGreat Repeal Bill\u201d acknowledged that much of the corpus of EU law would have to remain in force at the time of Brexit and that pre-Brexit rulings of the CJEU would continue to have effects in the courts after any (or no) Brexit agreement was reached. This lecture considered the constitutional implications of these proposals, how they might work in practice, and what they might mean for the common law\u2019s relationship with EU law more broadly. It also considered some of the challenges that the courts might encounter in the particular areas of discrimination law and environmental law, where the overlay of domestic, European and international standards may complicate any idea of repeal.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"29-05-2017\"\n    >\n29.05.2017<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>Workshop &#8220;Access to Justice and Restrictive Measures in the Context of the CFSP &#8211; The <em>Rosneft<\/em> Case&#8221;.

In the Rosneft case, the Court interpreted extensively the scope of its jurisdiction with regard to restrictive measures in response to actions of Russia to destabilise the situation in Ukraine, holding that it can give preliminary rulings on the validity of a CSFP act providing for sanctions against individuals and entities or impacting on other EU policies. The round table addressed the important legal issues raised in the context of EU restrictive measures, such as judicial review of CFSP acts, EU security objectives, Member States\u2019 enforcement powers, discussing the impact of the Rosneft judgment.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"19-05-2017\"\n    >\n19.05.2017<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>Workshops of Prof. E.

The analysis of the Court covers topical issues related to the choice of legal basis and the nature of EU external competence, such as: the scope of the common commercial policy in relation to the objectives of promoting non-discrimination and of facilitating the circulation of accessible format copies; the significance of a minimum level of protection of copyright and related rights introduced by Directive 2001\/29; and the interpretation of the criterion of affectation of EU rules (ERTA doctrine). <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"31-03-2017\"\n    >\n31.03.2017<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>Seminar of Prof. Kenneth Dyson: &#8220;On the uses and abuses of tradition in political economy.

In June 2012, Banking Union was proposed by euro area heads of state and government as an institutional mechanism to resolve the sovereign debt crisis. Progress on the construction of Banking Union has been rapid with the establishment of the Single Supervisory Mechanism in November 2014. The ECB has been assigned the power to supervise the euro area\u2019s largest (approximately 130) banks. Banking Union also involves the creation of the Single Resolution Mechanism, with the gradual centralisation of approximately 50 billion euros worth of resolution funds; and a fiscal backstop, with the possible earmarking of European Stability Mechanism funds to support banks. Banking Union also involves the application of the EU single rule book on banking regulation, recent legislation on recovery and resolution, and a degree of harmonisation of national banking supervisory practices. Euro area member states have yet to agree upon the fourth main element of Banking Union \u2014 a European Deposit Insurance Scheme \u2014 largely due to German government opposition. This Public Round Table involved the participation of both &#8216;practioners&#8217; from the public and private spheres and academics. The event provided an opportunity to examine critically the state of play in the construction of Banking Union. The event also marked the recent publication of Professor Howarth\u2019s book (with Professor Lucia Quaglia), The Political Economy of European Banking Union with Oxford University Press.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"list-highlighted__item  wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item\">\n    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-header\">\n    \n<h4 class=\"title text-18 font-bold has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"26-27-05-2016\"\n    >\n26-27.05.2016<\/h4>\n<div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-bigtext\">\n    <span>\n        \n    <\/span>\n<\/div><\/header><div class=\"list-highlighted__body wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-body\">\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-highlighted-list-item-free-content-area\">\n    \n<p>Workshop &#8220;Ageing, Culture and Comparative Development&#8221; (Prof. A. Irmen). Population aging is a worldwide phenomenon. Over the next 50 years, the median age of the global population was to rise to 36.2 years, the old-age dependency ratio for Europe will be close to 1\/2 in 2050, implying significant changes in the population age distribution.  Thus, a thorough understanding of the channels through which ageing affects societies is critical.  The workshop emphasized novel channels associated with the phenomenon of aging such as the channel of culture. In addition, it addressed several question related to the comparative development of countries.  What are the forces behind the differential economic and demographic development?  Why have some countries developed so much earlier while others remain trapped in poverty?
